--- Comment #6 from Gleb Popov <arrowd@FreeBSD.org> ---
> However, the problem remains: I'm including /usr/local/include/iconv.h an=
d linking with -lc which also provides an iconv implementation. With the LI=
BICONV_PLUG the libiconv functions don't get the "lib" prefix.

What's the problem with this approach? This is exactly what Ports framework=
 do.
By passing -DLIBICONV_PLUG you make it indifferent for the software you're
compiling whether 3rd party libiconv is installed or not.
